By showing endurance and commitment, accepting responsibility for issues and being open for new ideas, you will significantly drive the HR work forward and contribute to the company's success.

Become a part of our HR team!

Have you just successfully completed your degree? Then you can apply directly for a position or the START IN Human Resources trainee program.

Direct entry means "on the job" training - from day one you will accept responsibility for a subject area. With the "START IN Human Resources" trainee program we offer you project responsibility from day one as well as an assignment in another country, networking events and the support of a mentor.

With the "Welcome to BASF – BE PART" program our new employees are ideally prepared for their working environment. You can also take advantage of many opportunities to build up and expand your network. The program is supplemented by the "Welcome to HR" initiative.

You see yourself as a partner of business and are happy to accept responsibility. If you combine these characteristics with enthusiasm, you will find here a personal and international working environment with a variety of opportunities and long-term development perspectives.

Your opportunities for development

BASF will support you in actively organizing your development, e.g.:
